(Thomas Watson, "The Beatitudes" 1660)
"I have refined you in the furnace of affliction."
Isaiah 48:10
"Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal
fire prepared for the Devil and his demons! And they
will go away into eternal punishment!" Mt. 25:41, 46
God has two fires—
one where He puts His gold,
one where He puts His dross.
The fire where He puts His gold, is
the fire of affliction—to purify them.
The fire where He puts His dross, is
the fire of damnation—to punish them.
